  • AA additional air
  • main burner fuel injection nozzles 04 and main burner air nozzles 03 extending nearly horizontally.
  • Fuel 11 is fed from a fuel feed installation (not shown) to the main burner fuel injection nozzles 04 through the fuel feed pipes 06 and is injected into the boiler furnace 01.
  • main burner air 10 is fed from a ventilating installation (not shown) through the main burner air ducts 05 to the main burner wind boxes 02, and is blown into the boiler furnace 01 through the main burner air nozzles 03.
  • the injection of the fuel 11 and of the main burner air 10 is effected in a direction tangential to an imaginary cylindrical surface 20 which is located at the central portion of the boiler furnace 01.
  • the fuel 11 injected into the boiler furnace 01 along the tangential direction is ignited by an ignition source (not shown) to form flames 09, and as the fuel diffuses and mixes with the main burner air 10 injected in the tangential direction through the main burner air nozzles 03, combustion is continued.
  • the main burner air 10 is fed at a rate lower than an air feed rate that is theoretically necessary for combusting the fuel 11 injected into the boiler furnace 01. Therefore, the interior portion of the boiler furnace 01 below the AA blowing portion is held under a reducing atmosphere. Accordingly, the combustion of the fuel 11 produces unburnt combustion gas 13 containing unburnt fuel at the portion below the AA blowing portion.
  • the AA 12 is fed from a ventilating installation (not shown) which also feeds the main burner air 10, or from a separately disposed ventilating installation (not shown) through the AA ducts 07.
  • the AA 12 is blown into the boiler furnace 01 in a tangential manner, like the main burner air 10, through the AA air nozzles 16 disposed nearly horizontally in AA wind boxes 15.
  • the injection of the AA 12 is effected in the same tangential direction as the main burner air 10 with respect to the imaginary cylindrical surface 20.
  • the flow rate of the AA 12 is such that a sufficient amount of oxygen, i.e. an amount necessary for perfectly burning unburnt fuel in the unburnt combustion gas 13, is fed into the boiler furnace 01.
  • the AA 12 blown into the boiler furnace 01 is mixed with the unburnt combustion gas 13 by diffusion, thus causing the unburnt fuel in the unburnt combustion gas 13 to burn perfectly, and is exhausted to the outside of the boiler furnace 01 as combustion exhaust gas 14.
  • the AA blowing portion it is desired to completely combust unburnt components of the unburnt combustion gas 13 by injecting AA 12 through the AA blowing nozzles 16.
  • the injection of AA 12 is carried out in a relatively low-temperature (about 1000°-1200° C.) atmosphere within the boiler furnace 01 for the purpose of suppressing the transformation rate of the intermediate products into NO x .
  • the unburnt combustion gas 13 rises while swirling. As the unburnt combustion gas 13 rises, the outer diameter of the swirling flow of the unburnt combustion gas 13 gradually becomes large, and in the proximity of the AA blowing portion, the amount of unburnt combustion gas 13 flowing along the wall of the boiler furnace 01 increases.
  • the blowing momentum of the AA 12 is about 1/5 to 1/3 that of the blowing momentum of the main burner air 10, provided that the blowing velocities are equal to each other.
  • the AA 12 blowing through the AA blowing nozzles 16 at the respective corner portions both diffuses and mixes with the main flow portion of the unburnt combustion gas 13, and penetrates through the main flow portion and flows towards the central portion of the boiler furnace 01.
  • the momentum of the AA 12 flowing towards the central portion of the boiler furnace 01 is attenuated due to the facts that the AA 12 has penetrated through the main flow portion of the unburnt combustion gas and that the distance from the AA blowing nozzle 16 to the central portion of the boiler furnace 01 is long.
  • the AA 12 does not diffuse or mix with the unburnt combustion gas 13 in the proximity of the central portion of the boiler furnace 01. Accordingly, the AA 12 rises without contributing to the completion of the combustion of the unburnt combustion gas, and it is exhausted from the outlet of the boiler furnace 01.
  • countermeasures such as (1) increasing a total combustion air flow rate (a flow rate of main burner air 10 + a flow rate of AA 12), (2) lengthening the time in which it takes combustion gas from the AA blowing portion to flow to the outlet of the boiler furnace 01, (3) weakening the reducing atmosphere under the AA blowing portion by increasing a flow rate of the main burner air 10, or the like are necessary.
  • countermeasures (1) and (3) are disadvantageous in view of the production of NO x
  • the countermeasure (2) is disadvantageous in view of cost.
  • the boiler furnace combustion system in the prior art presents problems in connection with the diffusion and mixing of the AA 12 and the unburnt combustion gas 13. Therefore, there is a problem to be resolved in that if one intends to decrease NO x production, the amount of unburnt fuel is increased, while if one intends to decrease the amount of unburnt fuel remaining, NO x reduction is not sufficient.
  • the boiler furnace combustion system includes a plurality of main burners disposed nearly horizontally on side wall surfaces or at corner portions of a square-barrel-shaped boiler furnace having a vertical axis with axes of the burners directed tangentially to a cylindrical surface having its axis aligned with the axis of said boiler furnace, and a plurality of nozzles for injecting additional air and disposed nearly horizontally in said boiler furnace at a higher level than said main burners.
  • a main burner combustion region, in which fuel from said main burners and air are injected, is held under a reducing atmosphere or an atmosphere of a low oxygen concentration of 1% or less, and that fuel not burnt in said main burner combustion region is perfectly burnt by the additional air blown through said nozzles.
  • the system is characterized in that said plurality of nozzles for injecting additional air are provided in at least two groups at upper and lower levels of the boiler furnace, respectively.
  • the nozzles for injecting additional air at the lower level are provided at corner portions of said boiler furnace and have their nozzle axes directed tangentially to a second cylindrical surface having its axis aligned with the axis of said boiler furnace and having a larger diameter than that of first said cylindrical surface.
  • the nozzles for injecting additional air at the higher level are provided at central portions of the side wall surfaces of said boiler furnace and have their nozzle axes directed tangentially to a third cylindrical surface having its axis aligned with the axis of said boiler furnace and having a smaller diameter than that of said second cylindrical surface.
  • the unburnt combustion gas and additional air are diffused and mixed uniformly in a reliable manner.

  • numeral 119 designates upstream side (lower level) AA (additional air)
  • numeral 120 designates downstream side (upper level) AA (additional air).
  • the injection of the fuel 11 and of the main burner air 10 are effected in a tangential direction to an imaginary cylindrical surface 20, having an axis aligned with the axis of the boiler furnace 01 (see FIG. 2).
  • the fuel 11 injected into the boiler 01 is ignited by an ignition source (not shown) and forms flames 09, and as it diffuses and mixes with the main burner air 10 blown in the tangential direction through the main burner air nozzles 03, combustion continues.
  • the main burner air 10 is fed at a flow rate less than the air flow rate that is theoretically necessary for combusting the fuel 11 injected into the boiler furnace 01. Therefore, the interior portion of the boiler furnace 01 below the AA blowing portion is held under a reducing atmosphere. The combustion of the fuel 11 produces unburnt combustion gas 13 containing unburnt fuel due to a lack of oxygen in the interior portion below the AA blowing portion, and the unburnt combustion gas rises while swirling.
  • the AA blowing portion Above the main burner wind boxes 02 of the boiler furnace main body 01 is the AA blowing portion, divided into two groups respectively disposed at higher and lower levels.
  • the upstream side (lower level) AA wind boxes 115 are provided at the respective corner portions of the square-barrel-shaped boiler furnace main body 01.
  • Upstream side (lower level) A nozzles 116 extend nearly horizontally within wind boxes 115 to inject the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 into the flow of the unburnt combustion gas 13 which has risen.
  • the injection of the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 through the upstream side (lower level) AA nozzles 116 is effected in a direction tangential to a second imaginary cylindrical surface 21 having an axis aligned with the axis of the boiler furnace 01 and having a larger diameter than the above-mentioned imaginary cylindrical surface (see FIG. 3).
  • the downstream side (upper level) AA wind boxes 117 are provided at the central portions of the respective side walls of the boiler furnace main body 01.
  • the downstream side (upper level) AA nozzles 118 extend nearly horizontally within wind boxes 117 to inject the downstream side (upper level) AA 120 therefrom into the furnace 01.
  • the downstream side (upper level) AA 120 is injected in a direction tangential to a third imaginary cylindrical surface 22 (see FIG. 4) through the downstream side (upper level) AA nozzles 118.
  • This third imaginary cylindrical surface 22 has a smaller diameter than the above-mentioned second imaginary cylindrical surface and its axis aligned with the axis of the boiler furnace 01.
  • the flow rate of the AA 12 is 10% to 40% of a total combustion air flow rate (a flow rate of main burner air 10 + a flow rate of AA 12). Because this air flow is separated into the upstream side AA 119 and the downstream side AA 120, blowing momenta of the upstream side AA 119 and the downstream side AA 120 both become small compared to that of the main burner air 10.
  • the blowing energy may be attenuated and the AA may rise towards the outlet of the boiler furnace 01 without forming a swirling flow and without being sufficiently diffused and mixed with the unburnt combustion gas 13.
  • the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 should be blown into the swirling flow of the unburnt combustion gas 13 as early as possible immediately after it has been blown into the furnace. This is one of the reasons why the diameter of the second imaginary cylindrical surface 21 is set to be larger than the diameter of the imaginary cylindrical surface 20.
  • the unburnt combustion gas rises while it is swirling, and as it rises the outer diameter of its swirl flow becomes large. Therefore, in the proximity of the upstream side (lower level) AA blowing portion, a flow rate of the unburnt combustion gas 13 flowing along the walls of the boiler furnace 01 increases. Since the unburnt temperature of the combustion gas 13 is lower as the gas approaches the walls of the boiler furnace 01, in order to make the unburnt component burn perfectly, it is necessary to quickly feed oxygen to a region close to the walls of the boiler furnace 01.
  • the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 is provided to surely mix with the unburnt combustion gas 13 in order to perfectly burn the unburnt component of this unburnt combustion gas 13 in the proximity of the walls of the boiler furnace 01. And, this is also the reason why the diameter of the second imaginary cylindrical surface 21 is set to be larger than that of cylindrical surface 21.
  • the unburnt combustion gas 13 diffuses and mixes with the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 in the proximity of the walls of the boiler furnace 01, and while combustion continues, it reaches the downstream side (higher level) AA blowing portion.
  • downstream side (higher level) A 120 blows through the downstream side (higher level) AA nozzles 118 provided nearly at the central portions of the side walls of the boiler furnace 01, the distance from the nozzles 118 to the third imaginary cylindrical surface 22 at the central portion of the boiler furnace 01 is short. Hence, the blowing momentum attenuates only a little, and therefore, the downstream side (higher level) AA forms a strong swirling flow. Accordingly, the AA diffuses and mixes effectively with the unburnt combustion gas 13 at the central portion of the boiler furnace 01. Thus, an unburnt component of the unburnt combustion gas 13 is burned perfectly, and is exhausted from the outlet of the boiler furnace 01 as combustion exhaust gas 14.
  • the AA blowing portion includes two groups of wind boxes and nozzles disposed at higher and lower levels, respectively, and that the upstream side (lower level) AA 119 is injected from the respective corner portions of the boiler furnace 01 to the proximity of the walls of the boiler furnace 01, while the downstream side (higher level) AA 120 is blown from the central portions of the respective side wall surfaces towards the central portion of the boiler furnace 01, the AA 12 and the unburnt combustion gas 13 can surely diffuse and mix with each other, whereby a highly efficient combustion and reduction of the amount of soot and dust can be realized.
  • the combustion under the AA blowing portion can be effected with a lower air-to-fuel ratio than in the prior art.
  • FIG. 8 is a diagram showing relationships of an NO x production rate and a soot/dust concentration versus an AA blowing rate with respect to both the illustrated embodiment and the prior art.
  • This data is the result of tests conducted by the inventors on a test furnace using pulverized coal as fuel. With respect to this data, the relationship between the NO x production rate and the AA blowing rate constitute generally well-known characteristics. In the case where petroleum or gaseous fuel is used in place of the pulverized coal, similar characteristics are also observed.
  • the left ordinate represents the proportion (%) of NO x at the outlet of the furnace, and the right ordinate represents a soot/dust concentration (mg/Nm 3 ) in combustion exhaust gas at the outlet of the furnace. Also, the abscissa represents a ratio (%) of the AA flow rate to a total combustion air flow rate.
  • the amount of NO x at the outlet of the furnace tends to become lower as the AA flow rate proportion increases.
  • a soot/dust limit value 250 mg/Nm 3
  • the soot/dust concentration at the outlet of the furnace reaches the soot/dust limit value when the AA blowing rate proportion is 33%. Therefore, the NO x production rate is about 30% lower than that in the prior art.
  • the AA flow rate proportion can be set to a large value, whereby a low NO x production rate, which could not be realized in the prior art, can be achieved.
  • the AA is injected at two levels (upper and lower), in the case of a large-capacity boiler in which the boiler furnace main body 01 is large, the upstream side (lower level) AA nozzles 116 and the downstream side (higher level) AA nozzles 118 could be provided in a number of pairs.
  • the unburnt combustion gas and the AA are reliably diffused and mixed.
  • the upstream side (lower level) AA is used to promote combustion in the proximity of the wall surface, while the downstream side (higher level) AA is used to promote combustion at the central portion of the furnace.
